Kings with Sabonis will be relevant for 2-3 years and Hali with the Pacers will double it
It was a mutually beneficial trade. Hali wouldn't be playing at this level if he was still on the Kings and the Kings would still be losing.
Fox and Hali are both fantastic players but they didn't work well. They both thrive with the ball in their hands
Cmon man, we don't need to keep doing this. Both teams are happy. Let this narrative rest.
Kings with Haliburton were just awful. There wasn't a realistic hope to make it that good within his contract, so really the fact that a completely different Pacers team made great use of him doesn't matter much to Sacramento.
Kings bet on leaving Fox in (whom would have netted much less attractive trade return than Haliburton at the time) would be the best possible use of their actual chances, and it turned out to be correct.
Triple it
